“She wasn’t making sense at all and you could tell she’s not in a good place at all, and that she is totally freaking out,” reveals Emily Wynne-Hughes, an employee at Body & Soul, the Sherman Oaks tattoo parlor where Britney got a black-white-and-pink cross tattooed on her lower hip and red-and-pink lips on her wrist.

Hughes tells Us Weekly, “She was a nightmare to deal with. She was screaming and flipping out from the pain and wiggling her body all around.”

At one point during Britney’s one-hour visit, Hughes asked Britney why there was a pink stain on her fluffy white handbag and Britney said she had “spilled Nyquil all over it.”

Hughes, who was appalled and concerned by what she saw, adds, “After she left the shop we all just looked around and said to each other, ‘We just saw a huge celebrity on the verge of a nervous breakdown.'”

I’m in AZ, USA right now, and if you think that’s big in Canada, you should HEAR the buzz here: wow. Celebrity culture is seriously exacerbated down here. I now truly understand the success of publications like ‘US Weekly’ and ‘People.’

Britney made a huge mistake. I think it was a horrible idea for her to shave her head. I don’t know how this will help with a come back. She makes great music, but honestly, no one is going to buy her albums (especially guys) with her looking like that. I’m sure there are better ways to mourn the loss of k-fed. Tbhough, at the same time it is her life, so I guess if she likes looking that way then maybe we should be less critical.
